Churchill colt who has progressed with each start to date, handling this tight track well when second in maiden here (10.3f, good). Went close back down in trip at Haydock since and of definite interest here.

Forecasts

Circios (8/13), Mister Winston (13/8), They All Know Me (17/2), Saint Terry (66/1), Red Vines (125/1), Hallucinate (150/1)

This looks between MISTER WINSTON and Circios. The latter is the better prospect but she was very green at Doncaster and Mister Winston's previous experience around here should count for plenty.
